It is now more important than ever to make sure your customers are properly linking up their 360 virtual tours. If you are not already following up with your customers then you need to start this as soon as possible. Stop potentially bad habits, oversights or improper linking of your virtual tours before you have a mess on your hands.
From the very start of our TC Virtual Tour company I noticed that many of our customers either used the wrong link altogether or did not link the virtual tour onto ALL of their sites. Remember that many real estate agents will have a personal website-- www.judylevin.com, a local company website-- www.cbgreatlakes.com , an MLS system-- www.taar.com and sometimes an national site-- www.ColdwellBanker.com .
Your single online 360 virtual tour MUST find its way to all of these sites or you are not doing justice to your work. That is a LOT of checking up on if you're doing several virtual tours a month but very little work if you simply make this a standard operational procedure after you bring on any new customer and perform their first tour. Do what Team BlueLaVa does and write up a nice follow up email and edit a page on your website so you can display the virtual tour linking instructions that will utilize our nice fancy tour buttons.
Send out this tour follow up email after you do your first tour or two for a new customer and you will find this works out any kinks that may be hiding in your system. Perhaps then schedule a quarterly maintenance email but typically the real estate agents are good about passing the process over to the assistants or in many cases...you.
Don't let it bog you down! The linking of virtual tours is not only very complicated for some real estate agents people to grasp but can also be very overwhelming for the virtual tour provider. With proper use of good note taking on each of your customers you will quickly learn who each virtual tour link goes to.
Make sure your virtual tours have maximum reach and impact. The better the tours do the more orders you will get. TRUST ME!
Good luck out there!

Hi Jason:
You're absolutely right! A couple of my clients would never get their tours up if I didn't call to make sure they had received them and put them up. Some of them are embarrassed to ask for help. Some of them forget to put the tour on all their sites. If you call them and they have already put the tour on you can find out how they liked it.
And, of course, it always helps to get in touch with our clients on a regular basis so that they keep us in mind.
